Superocean Heritage ‘57 LE

[Baco Noir]

Is it just me, or does any one else like this rainbow dial in the new Superocean Heritage ‘57 Lineup?

It has a total 60’s hippy vibe!

Honestly, I like it better than the others in the lineup. The hour markers look off on the standard version but the rainbow color scheme on the LE make them standout in a good way IMHO.

This one is very polarizing based on comments. I agree with you, the rainbow colors are pretty cool and unique. No other brand, as far as I know, has anything similar.

It's definitely polarizing judging by comments in various forums. I kind of like it. Although I don't like the 3,6,9 & 12 indices on these models. They're an odd combination of round and baton. The 9 o'clock on the limited edition brings this to mind..

The closest I can think of is the rainbow Daytona and without the gemstones and gold this one is much more subtle, yet not subtle at all.

I know, but somehow it works better than the white only version of the dial IMHO.

Neat watch. Mesh seems out of place for this model. Sterile concave bezel complements dial well. Seems like your Zodiac fills the casual cool slot nicely in your collection.

this model, pre-order filled


As an aside, that is a nice blue striped nato. 20mm. All the natos seem to have stripes down the length, not across the width like this one.

Nice - but I think I still like the black dial better.

Think I'll pass on anything rainbow except cake.

Not sure I like it either.
Can’t say that I hate it, I don’t, but something about the whole design doesn’t work for me. Very 70s and that’s my least favourite design era.

2 new models. Red gold is ltd ed 500pcs. I've liked the brown dial Captain Cook with concave bezel. So I like this one too.

Yeah, I wish I had grabbed one when they were new, but they went so fast!
